Ruined by cheaters ... as usual.

MW2 multiplayer was fun, even for casual players like myself ... until the wallhacks and aimbots came into it. Now, most days, I can't find a match where there isn't at LEAST one cheater, sometimes four or more of them.
Tracked through an entire building, when you were never in LOS of the shooter to begin with? Tracked, I might add, without the benefit of a UAV or heartbeat sensor (Ninja and Cold Blooded) ...? Wallhack - there's just no other way for them to have known anyone was there.
Shot through cover, halfway across the map, when you were never in their LOS, they were looking the other way to begin with, and they never had eyes on you? Wallhack, again. And possibly an aimbot as well.
...
I don't mind losing to people who clearly outclass me with SKILL.
I do mind being killed repeatedly by people who're using CHEATS, such that even THEY might as well not be playing the game.
...
OTOH, the single-player experience is as top-notch as one would expect of the COD franchise, and definitely not to be missed. Based on single-player alone (and absent cheaters in multiplayer), I would have given the game an 8/10 rating.
